The point is she is brainless and worthless. And she is being held in such high esteem. This is awful for kids.
Hey you wonderful folks. Got to run....Hawaii 50 on LIV and after that The Five.
I am taking off my flame suit, but will put it back on after The Five.
Saludos.
It has been fun.
You know who passed their 15 minutes of fame a long time ago and are too...freaking...stupid to know it? The folks on our side who are still crapping on the Palins. I mean, really, thanks, guys. The 2012 field is so much better without her. It’s so much better than she was. Oh, wait a minute. No, it’s not. It’s really not. The Washington Generals show more heart and potential to win than this bunch of clowns. But go ahead and say “Sarah Palin had a bad interview four years ago” again. Say “Sarah Palin talks funny” again. Say “Bristol Palin’s a slut” again. I dare you. I double dare you.
You must have lived a perfect life. Is your real name Jesus, by any chance? Last time I checked, Panama was a third-world sh*t hole. How about improving your country and we'll worry about the USA.
You’re a liar. Nancy French was the collaborator (not a ghostwriter) and it was publicized that she was the collaborator.
The flypaper seems to be the piece with your obsession of the Palin family on it. Millions of girls are unwed mothers with no education. Big deal.
No, I grew up in the Canal Zone which was a perfect life:

The Definition of a CZBrat
________________________________________
With perilous pride the local youth born in the Panama Canal Zone have dubbed themselves “brats.” The species, they say, has three varieties: Army, Canal Zone, and Navy. In the contemptuous sense they are, of course, no more brats than any other cross-section of young Americans.
Their alleged allergy to the assumption of responsibilities has a familiar ring that probably echoes as far back as humanity’s first “older” generation. The gradual abandonment of rural life and the rapid advent of a push-button era combine to rob that charge, so frequently made by the aging, of its realism. In all the Canal Zone there is no such thing as a wood box to fill, coal or snow to shovel, or even a privately-owned lawn mower to push. The quality of soil and multiplicity of ravenous insects discourage private gardening. The absence of such chores, plus the presence of a maid in almost every household, leave few domestic routines to be assumed by young folk. Even spending money cannot be earned in an area which offers no private enterprise and a very few odd jobs. Doubtless the consistently high standard of family income often encourages a larger weekly allowance than is wise. If these combine to give young Zonians a false impression of life’s rigid requirements, let it be remembered that they are but the victims of such circumstances. The absence of a Juvenile Court speaks volumes for the good to be found in Canal Zone homes, churches, schools, recreation programs and the “brats” themselves.
It would be difficult to find a community more conducive to good health. Medical care is excellent and within the reach of every family budget. Houses being built with screens instead of closable windows, one is literally never away from fresh air. Every day of the year playgrounds, swimming pools and beaches are crowded. There is organized recreation even during non-school months. The world offers no better fishing in ocean, lake or river than in Panama. For hiking there are endless trails. No snow? What need for it with slippery palm leaves for a sled?
The school system is accredited by the Middle States Association of Secondary Schools and colleges. In 1944, a survey conducted by that Association resulted in a rating of “superior” for the Canal Zone schools. There are few schools with better physical equipment. That is especially true in science laboratories and library facilities. For example, the Balboa High School alone has 11,000 volumes. A high staff rating requires that High School teachers have a Masters degree, while many of the Junior College faculty possess a Doctor of Philosophy degree. This college enjoys credit reciprocity with Stateside colleges. The two high schools are located in Balboa and Cristobal.
There is neither compulsory attendance in any Canal Zone school nor a truant officer, yet very few pupils “play hookey.” The philosophy that schooling is not a requirement but a privilege seems to be practical—at least in the Canal Zone where there are no poor families needing financial aid from employed minors. Contrary to the pattern in most North American high schools, the senior enrollment frequently exceeds that of the Sophomore and Junior classes.
Another singular value is the cosmopolitan atmosphere in which young folk are steeped at the Crossroads of the World. Influences from afar plus the local blending of cultures and unusual opportunities combine to eliminate the deadening provincialisms that bedevil our “One World.” All this and much more combine to make of local “brats” not only good Americans, but also good world citizens.

I never said she was a ghost writer. I said I didn’t know who the person was who wrote the book for this little girl.
Learn to read.
What is the big deal here? It’s no different than all those “16 and Pregnant”, “Jersey Shore”, Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian shows making the rounds. As long as people watch these shows glorifying bad decisions, stupidity, or people who have done nothing in life but are privileged... The networks will continue to air them.
Can’t blame them. It’s the mindless lemmings watching that keeps them relevant.
P.S.
“Last time I checked, Panama was a third-world sh*t hole. How about improving your country and we’ll worry about the USA.”
Not surprising, you have the countries confused. It is the USA that is a third-world sh*t hole these days.
Panama is mining copper, gold, oil is seeping out of the ground in the Provence of El Darien; and best of all, the widening of the Panama Canal is going great. There are not enough folks to fill all these jobs, so Panama is recruiting from other countries.
The US is falling apart as is the rest of the world, but Panama is doing just find.
You need to do some reading.
How about improving “your” country? But then, it is
too far gone for “your” banana republic.
Good luck.
P.S. again.
I forgot to mention:
Panama at this moment is building a huge undergound subway system and a couple of new airports.
Bananas anybody?
There you go lying again. You wrote, “Who that someone else is, the name never came to the fore other than it was written for her.”
Nancy French’s name was prominent in the promotion of the book, as well as being on the front cover of the book. You said the name never came to the forefront, intimating that the book was ghostwritten.
Can you learn to read, you arrogant pos?
“There you go lying again. You wrote, “Who that someone else is, the name never came to the fore other than it was written for her.””
No, I didn’t lie. I didn’t give a damn enough to care to investigate. I still don’t.
Nancy French. A big Mitt Romney fan helped with the book.
Thank you, dforest, but truthfully, I am just not interested in this child’s past, present, and future.
Thank you, dforest, for offering me all that reading. But truthfully, I am just not interested in this child’s past, present, and future.
Building an underground subway????
Wow...when I was there they didn’t even have a sewage system....people use to paddle boats down the streets in the rainy season.
And still here you are with 15 freaking posts out of the last 36 in this thread. Looks like a lot of interest to me.
Last I heard, Bristol was over 18, so she’s not a child anymore. She can do what she wants, for better or worse.
Yeah, nobody is clamoring to come to the United States:
